question

works with sony alpha 7sii?
Asked by: Anonymous
The Sony DT 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 SAM II Lens has the Sony A-mount, while the a7S II has the E-mount. So, the lens would not be natively compatible with the a7S II. While there are lens adapters you could look at, the lens is also an APS-C size sensor lens, so would not cover the entire full frame sensor. The camera would need to be shot in the APS-C size sensor mode.
